ENDORSEMENT: Washington Teacher's Union!

WASHINGTON (October 8, 2014). Elissa Silverman has just received the endorsement of the Washington Teacher's Union. The WTU represents more than 4,500 teachers and other educators in the District of Columbia Public Schools.

"Those who teach in D.C. Public Schools are among the most important members of our community. Our future depends on them," said Silverman, "I look forward to working with our teachers, parents and community members to reclaim the promise of a world-class public education for all District students."

Following last week's endorsements from the Fraternal Order of Police D.C. Police Union, Sierra Club, and LiUNA!, the WTU endorsement represents Silverman's 13th major endorsement since Labor Day.
